Uniquely Singapore (part 2)

So day 2! Day 2's itinerary was Science Center, Snow City, Jurong Birdpark, then Sim Lim Square (supposedly Sentosa, but we were just so tired & we wanted to conquer Sentosa w/ energy). This is our first day on our own. With the map, my knowledge (gained from Internet research), and our inquisitive attitude, and yes with a dose of adventure spirit, we went to those places we wanted to go to. Mind you, it was also our first time to use their MRT and buses. First, we asked our host. She was kind of enough to direct us to the nearest and most convenient MRT station and from there, it was all on our own. At the Outram Park MRT station, we were saying, "Let's watch how these people purchase cards for their ride." So that's what we exactly did. It was easy! And it's not like how we do it in the Manila (not exactly convenient). Gosh, we're so laid-back!

First stop was the Science Center. Well, this was just our gateway to Snow City. At the center, we just took pictures of whatever took our fancy. Then we got to Snow City!!! Super excited about playing in the snow. Yes we had so much fun. Too bad we didn't get a pic of us in the snow. :( The photographer went out for a while and didn't get back very soon. Anyway, it was soooo fun! Next stop was Jurong Birdpark. But we had lunch first before heading to Jurong. Full. full. And we're ready to conquer the birds! Jurong Birdpark's entrance fee was pegged at SGD22 (including the tram ride). Our first stop was the hornbills and toucans area, then near to that is the lory loft where we got a chance to feed the lories! Oh, I should mention, there were a lot of swans and flamingoes at the park. My first time to see them! What a pretty sight. Then they also had a man-made waterfalls at the forest with fake forest mist. This was the Waterfalls Aviary. It was like walking through the Amazon jungle (I think that's what the signage said) We concluded with the Birds of Prey Show where big birds were swooping above our heads. We then went to their souvenir shops and bought very few items. They were expensively priced! So we got just a few. And...we're going back to the city...Day 2 night time - next post. See yah!
